[b]In my opinion disappointments is just the distance between expectation and reality so either expect less or accept the reality; or better expect a lot and make it to reality. [/b] Please respond and share your views on it. Professor ‘Bhuwan’. . 28/11/2012

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Yes u are absolutely right, sometimes in life we expect so much that when such expectations are not fulfilled we are broken and crestfallen. So it is always better to work hard and never expect anything and be honest with whatever may be the results. Besides we should be aware of the reality otherwise we would behave immature or childish after the failures. Keep on working hard and success would be definitely yours. What say?

Yes u are absolutely right, even i think that hard work is the key to success and if we do hard work in our tasks then we will always taste success, if a task is done half heartedly then we can never expect results to be in our favor. What we should do is have dreams, stay focused and try to achieve our goals and then leave it to the Almighty, i am sure he will give justice to our efforts.

Disapointments happen all the time but we learn from them and I think they make us stronger to where we know where we went wrong and we have to start over and do things a different way. Just my thoughts.

I think disappointment is just part of reality. So better, expect less but still, give what you can give...and always aim high!

This is absolutely well said. The higher the expectation the higher the disappointment. So, one can either live in reality or make it his dreams or expectation into reality. You must need to put effort in everything you do to make it come true. Dreams do come true!

Hi proof, thank you for sharing this topic. It definitely gives us (mylotters) more time to ponder. Well, disappointment is the product of failure - it is when you are expecting too much and then you failed. Expectation, however, is the anticipation of good result based on reality. We actually build our expectations in our minds of what other people should do, what our lives should be like in the near future, wherein this could maybe not real and it is all about fantasy. And when Reality doesn't meet our fantasy (expectation) we, therefore, assume the world is different and not fair. That, sometimes, we compelled to leave our expectations and focus on reality, for we can surely arrived contentment and happiness and not failures and disappointments. If we know how to accept life without expectations, it means we accept the reality of life as it is. We should also know how accept our failures for us to see the greatness of winning in life.

Dear Professor, You are really good, I always like your philosophy. They are the light to the path of life and happiness. I opt for 'expect a lot and make it a reality!' Aim for the star, if you failed you still reached for the moon. Everyday is a present, make sure we found happiness everyday, appreciate our love ones and LOVE!

for me it's often a situation where I see/ expect two or more outcomes and then it turns out a totally unexpected outcome. So in my case it's rather a surprise than a disappointment when my expectations do not come true. And I guess that's what life is all about: cope with the unknown and learn from it

Disappointment is another spice in our life. As for my case, I really expect the worst out of any situation, like quizzes, exams and grades. However, every time I am expecting the worst, something greater would always come out.

prof, agree with you. It is very hard to live a life without expectations, as well as expectations are the reasons for most of our disappointments, pains and sorrows. If we expect a lot, we will get disappointment. We must expect the things within our limitation to avoid unwanted disappointment. Our dreams and desires will create expectations in our life. There is nothing wrong in dreaming high and expecting it, but we must be sportive and take failures as a normal one, if we don't have the ability to fulfill our expectation. It is not easy to achieve high targets in our life, we must work hard and dedicated to achieve our aim. All the leaders and achievers struggled a lot in their life to reach their target. They have dreams and desires as well as expect a lot in their life and achieved their expectations with their hard work and effort. Not every one get success with their first attempt. Most of the leaders got failures with their first try, but they don't give up their try and work hard to achieve their expectation. We have the ability to fulfill our dreams and expectations. We must plan our way to achieve the target and do dedicated work to reach our target. Expectations will be fulfilled only if we struggle a lot in our life. Our expectation will give more strength and motivation to us, we will work hard to achieve our target and reach our expectation. So our expectations will give indirect energy to us. Most of us have the ability to fulfill our honest and real desires and get happiness while achieving it. Expectation is a part of our life and it is hard to live a life without it. Too much of expectations will give disappointment to us. Don't expect a lot and dream about the things which is beyond your capacity. You will get this kind of things with your hard work and enjoy a lot with your achievement.

I always expect more in anything because that's how i'll get motivated, when things doesn't come as expected i never call it "disappointment", it's just telling me that i need to change something to be better in the future,,
